|
As the curtain rises there's a hush |
|
The lights go dim, the stage is bare |
|
And as the orchestra begins to play |
|
A light appears and she is there |
|
And as she dances like a dream |
|
A spell is cast a magic scene |
|
For her beauty captures every heart |
|
But I am lost forever more |
|
I can't share her with other hearts |
|
Love is what I feel |
|
Those hearts may come and go |
|
But I'll be there for every show |
|
But she'll never know |
|
I know it's impossible |
|
I cannot share my secret love |
|
All too soon she takes the final bow |
|
The curtain falls and she is gone |
|
And as I wander through the lonely night |
|
I see her dance the dying swan |
|
I will always love from afar |
|
But she'll never know |
